I use 70%soy wax and 20% coconut wax with10% fragrance oil, my question is if i add stearic acid will it help with sweating? Because the weather is really hot and my candles keep sweating

Hi at what temprture u pour and put fragrance

[@sosacandles]

For my wax, 75-80 for adding fragrance and around 65-70 for pouring works best.

[@sharondhillion471]

Was not aware that steric acid could be used in a jar candle as well

[@sosacandles]

I hope this helps 🙂

[@jessfernandes3711]

❤ nice❤

[@sosacandles]

Thank you 🙂💯❤️

[@GlowStudio158]

What ammount of acid did u piut plesse in the jar or if u can give ir to us in grams😊

[@sosacandles]

I added 1% of the total candle. So if the total candle (fragrance oil + wax is 100 gm), then 1% of it is 1 grams

[@GlowStudio158]

Thanks for the reply u r so humble❤❤

[@SaimaAbbasi]

Steric Acid Kion? Kya wo chemical NH? Jab ke hum eco friendly soy wax use kr rahe aur essential oil etc

[@sosacandles]

Stearic acid is optional :) Also, it’s been used widely in candle making and cosmetics too
Stearic Acid has the ability to increase the harness of a candle, and has the quality of providing increased opacity and fragrance retention. Like I said, it’s an experiment, not a mandatory thing to add to your candles. 🙂

[@fauziatariq2904]

Can we use mica powder in candle making?

[@sosacandles]

Yes absolutely 💯 they give it nice shine

[@Hitzyheaven]

But steric acid is not mixed in jar candles.
Steric acid is usd in mould candles.you only said it right?than whats the point showing this experiment in jar candles?plz show in mould candles.

[@sosacandles]

There’s a gap in understanding here. You can add stearic acid in both jar candles and pillar/ designer candles. The purpose of testing this is to decipher if stearic acid really helps in prolonging the life of your candles.
Besides, last month, you commented that you wanted a Timelapse comparison to see if stearic acid really works in candles. Not sure about where the gap really is. 🙂

@@sosacandles thankyou for making this video but i was expecting in pillar candles😊

[@anetaj2001]

Making a good performing candle out of pure 100% soy wax is nearly impossible. Thats why we have wax blends containing additives, stearic acid being one of them. Different blends, different ratios of those additives, but stearic is one of the main ingrediences in wax blends. Pillar blends contain more acid than container ones does.. but container wax blends still HAVE stearic acid in them. Some may decide to add even more in the blend, resulting in stronger hot throw and better wick performance
